Running Smarter: Are you reaching your full potential?

12 August 2025

Running, running, running…


Whether you're chasing a PB, gliding across the East Yorkshire Wolds, or clocking miles to clear your head after work — running offers so much more than just physical fitness. It’s freedom, headspace, challenge, and community all rolled into one.


But here's the big question: Are you running at your best — or just getting by?

We speak to runners every week who are doing all the right things — ticking off their training plans, staying consistent, even cross-training — yet still hitting niggles, plateaus, or repeated injuries. Sound familiar?

That’s where a Runners MOT can make all the difference.


What is a Runners MOT?

It’s not just a ‘check-up’ — it’s a deep dive into how you run, move, and recover.


Led by one of our senior physiotherapists, the Runners MOT is a two-hour, one-to-one session combining clinical expertise with cutting-edge tech. We assess everything from your training load and injury history to your foot biomechanics, muscle strength, and running technique.


Using tools like our 3D foot scanner, pressure mapping force plate, OnForm video analysis and wearable RunScribe sensors, we can gather real-time insights into:

  • Vertical displacement and ground contact time
  • Pelvic and joint angles
  • Pronation patterns
  • Balance, flexibility and neuromuscular control
  • Power output and strength endurance
    …and loads more


You’ll receive a detailed report outlining key risk factors, form and technique cues, strength and conditioning advice, and personalised recommendations to improve performance and reduce injury risk. All for £180.


Curious? Come along to our FREE Runners Open Morning

If you're intrigued and want to see the tech in action, we’re opening our doors for a FREE Runners MOT Open Morning on Saturday 20 September 2025, from 9:00am.
